Book Abstract
Main Idea
Ongoing and constant change is now so all-pervasive that it has become essential for organizations to become nimble
– able to respond to change and stay aligned with the needs of the marketplace more effectively and more efficiently than their competition. Simply put, the nimbleness of any organization is now a key element of any sustainable competitive advantage it may attempt to secure and defend.
To be nimble, however, means more than mere flexibility or rapid adaptation to changing market conditions. It’s really all about execution. A nimble organization succeeds by implementing changes better and faster than any of its competitors – not just by recognizing when a change is required. Thus, the status of nimbleness is earned and then retained one battle at a time. It is never derived from historical successes or a proud track record. Instead, the title must be earned each a nd every time a change is needed.
The benefits of being nimble, however, are impressive. Nimble organizations:
Attract and retain more competent employees – who are attracted to working for the market leader.
Design and deliver more creative solutions to customers – often even before customers have requested these new products.
Are well positioned to sell to
